Chapter 4

As the sun dipped below the horzon, Akane-kun dragged his bruised and battered form through the Tendo gate while thinking about the past few hours. Arrrg! I can't believe what a day I've had! he groaned.

Kasumi smiled sympathetically and replied, Oh Akane, cheer up. At least we lost them.

Yeah but, Akane-kun started to say when a high pitched laugh rang through the streets of Nerima.

HOHOHOHOHOHO! Where are you my stud muffin!


Akane-kun shuddered violently in a mixture of fear and loathing. Now, I know what Ranma goes through every day! he wailed while quickly ducking behind Kasumi's back and surveying the area. Frantically, Akane-kun searched for a good place to hide and whispered, I mean, first everything was fine until someone splashed me. Then, Shan-Pu had to show up! I didn't mean to accidentally knock her off her bicycle!

Well, You should have been looking where you were going, Akane. Now she'll be chasing you like she does with Ranma, yelling _Airen_ all day, Kasumi said wile doing a wonderful immitation of Shan-Pu's high pitched voice.

I know Akane-kun moaned in despair before continuing to recount the days events. Then, while I was trying to get away from Shan-Pu, I accidentally ran in to that psycho!" he growled while trying to control his temper. "I can't believe that she took one look at my cursed form and tried to jump me on the spot!


Kasumi giggled and placed a comforting hand on her sisters' now broad shoulder, Akane, you should be flattered. You're very handsome in your cursed form and I believe you would make a good model. You have the looks and the body that...well, just drives girls wild. Kasume giggled uncontrolably while commenting, "I thought it was really funny when Kodatchi kept yelling, "My love....My stud-muffin! Come and let me bring you to heaven! Oh...baby........Let me have your child!"


Kasumi! Don't say things like that! he moaned, horrified that his sister would say something like that. "Just hearing you repeat those words makes me want to hurl!" Akane-Kun shuddered in horror and continued, It's not like I want to stay this way! I mean, I've tried to change back into a girl all day. But, every time I try, it's like the gods are against me and I get splashed ten minutes later!


Well, you are a water magnet now and.... Kasumi replied while trying to calm her little brother down. But, she didn't get to finish her speech before the sound of Kodatchi's laughter came once more, only this time, it was closer than before.


Akane's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates before he dashed towards the house yelling, I gotta hide!


Once inside the house, Akane-kun made a beeline towards the only source of hot water in the house, the bathroom. Slamming the door closed, he quickly stripped and dashed towards the furo. Unfortunately, upon entering the bathroom, Akane had failed to notice the occupied sign. By the time Akane was in mid jump, he finally noticed that the tub was occupied by none other than his fiancé, Ranma. Akane only had one thought enter his mind before he was submerged in the hot water, "Oh Shit!
